...fill your head what a festive season, someday you’ll be dead’
A quite sombre Christmas song that’ll appeal to people who like black comedy and have a cynical outlook. At surface value it’s an out of place and depressing song to include on the album yet it is so absurd that it fits into the South Park style perfectly. Yet it can also have a little hidden moral in it basically saying that we should be thankful for out family and our lives because ‘someday we’ll be dead’. Depending on how you look at it, whether to take it without the connotative meaning or the denotative will alter the affect the song will have on you. However it’s still a nice song to listen to, nice and slow and nicely sung with good backing vocals from the South Park kids.
